Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased since the last message, with NOAA 13141 producing several C-class flares as well as an M1.2 flare at 07:00 UT today as it crossed the central meridian. The region has undergone significant flux emergence and is now classified as a beta-gamma-delta region with an area of 600uH. In particular, there has been negative polarity emergence to the north and west of the positive polarity leader spot. As such, we are reimplementing the Major Flare watch campaign, at this time. Further intermediate level activity likely with chance for an >M5 flare in the next 24-48 hours.
The position of NOAA 13141 on 11-Nov-2022 at 08:30 UT is:
N15W06, ( 98", 197" )
